Crystal lettuce is a highly decorative and early-maturing leaf lettuce variety that matures 42–45 days after germination. The plant forms a large, semi-erect rosette 20–25 cm tall and about 38 cm in diameter, weighing approximately 210 g. The lettuce leaves are bright green, medium-sized, ruffled, juicy, tender, and crisp, with no bitterness. The head is small, open, and of medium density. Due to its taste qualities and high vitamin content, the lettuce is considered a low-calorie food and is excellent for healthy eating.
This variety is distinguished by its cold hardiness and high yield, allowing it to be grown throughout the entire season. To continuously obtain fresh greens, it is recommended to sow seeds every 10–15 days. Crystal lettuce requires regular watering, which promotes the formation of juicy and tender leaves.
The lettuce is ideal for preparing fresh summer salads, sandwiches, and garnishing various dishes. Its bright green, crisp leaves add an attractive appearance and pleasant taste to dishes, making this variety popular among fans of fresh greens and a healthy lifestyle.
